Conjunctions: humanatures reproduction disjunctions

Conjunctions: humanatures reproduction disjunctions

Edited by Stella Sandford•2025

We have called this volume Conjunctions because the various themes which run through it – social and biological reproduction, the relationship between organic, social and technological life, the relations of all of these to sexuality and the relations between disciplines – do not form a unified picture, but they do reflect a particular state of relations between various fields in and adjacent to CRMEP as a historical project.
